Piano.O

 

Hot or not? :D

 

What happened was... I became bored recently of playing the same pieces all the time. So I was casually browsing through my scores on my messy piano top. Lo and behold, this piece, which has been lying there for a really looong time, stood out like a... Veggie stuck in the teeth. :D

Out of curiosity, I took it out and played. It made a fun sight-reading piece since the left hand accompaniment is basically similar throughout. But playing it in time is, of course, another story. >.< Nonetheless! It got me quite addicted. Major source of entertainment now that I'm on a 2-day MC.

(Thanks Yang for giving me this score a few years back... Now you know I haven't exactly touched it since... =x Hehe.)

This means neglecting the rest of my more crucial pieces.... Which is bad in view of my upcoming mini piano recital. Anyway... Yes... I'll be performing 3 of my Grade 8 exam pieces + one other. Trust me to do random things like that. :D

The only reason is because I screwed up my previous exam in August mainly due to nervousness (+ a thousand excuses). Thus, I reckon a pre-exam performance would do me much good, of which I otherwise would not even have the audacity to suggest. Hesitating whether or not I should tell my teacher... Lest she becomes frantic and freaks out. Or something like that.

It would be my first piano solo kind of solo. So alone and stranded. >.<  Better buck up. :(

    Wow that must be like, I think 5years or more back. Haha now I can imagine how messy your piano-top is (:
    Yup Claudine is an easy, soothing piece. Compared to other songs which Maksim plays which are...crazily difficult.
    And all the best for your recitals and exams and all that. It is true, that a recital (I had one before my grade8 exam as well, though I only played one song) helps to prepare you mentally for the stress on the exam day, and physically because you have to practise hard for both either way. I can only suggest, practise hard and just enjoy yourself during the recital/exam.
